A heat sink is a utility that helps manage heat disspation on mecha.
Use
A heatsink is completely passive. You just need it equipped to gain its benefit. It will add it's listed fuel cost to your heat dissipation ability. It actually has no fuel will never wear out or otherwise stop working unless it's destroyed via a critical hit.
Other Notes
Heat sinks cost 1 more point then their heat dissipation factor. Therefore, you get more bang per buck for equipping a single large one, then multiple smaller ones.
This is referred to as the triple heat sink in a lot of places, but this actually gives quadruple cooling compared to a single heat sink.
